I don't buy organic food not becuse I don't wnat to buy I really can't afford to spend the extra money for it.

I do cook it most of the time but I also eat it raw in a salad I get the same results both ways so I have givin up eating it.
I always rince my vegtables though that was ok.
but thanks for the input.
but not everyone I talk to that eats it has this problem.
maybe it is common and no one talks about it I didn't always have this problem its kind of a new development.

I have considered beano but that is just for gas right not dieareha? I never seem to have the extra money when I remeber it.
I take prilocet for my barrets and that is exspensive to buy but I need it a lot more than I would beano so I just don't eat broccoli right now but I well try it one of these days thanks.

Hi again, puffy...see, I saw your name and the subject interested me, so here I am again! LOL

I sometimes have a problem with broccoli, maybe because I like it just barely cooked. So, I cook it longer than I really want, and I "split" the ends so the stems cook real well too.

The thing that helps my digestive problems (IBS with diarrhea) the most, to the point of non-existent pain and gas too, is a probiotic, taken religiously every single day. This website store has some good probiotics, and they are not expensive, especially if you order them on the regular-delivery plan.
